Wow, so many opportunities to put the game away and they keep missing it

That was all ball. It's ridiculous that a challenge even has to be wasted on this.

To be fair, they were both such obvious calls, it would have been a total farce for them to not go our way.

Lue is playing him into the ground. This is exactly why we need a real point guard, but the front office keeps burying their head in the sand. :noway:

Wasn't pretty but a win is a win. Also played a good defensive game holding the Rockets under 100. And Zu looked like a prime Mutumbo...lol

Glad to finally be over .500 again. Hope it actually lasts this time. :)

Wow... a win is a win, but damn, some of the plays at the end were just plain bad. That 5 on 4 play with Zu wide open under the basket and Reggie someone manages throw a bad pass...

I know Reggie was scoring at the end, but he was basically playing the role of Paul George before he got hurt. Everything was run through him, he was doing a lot of dribbling, iso'ing... It's alright if he scores, but I'd like to see a little more ball movement.

On the bright side, this was a good example of using Zu and the "traditional" big, perfectly. One of his best games of the season.

Got home, turned on the game and saw Coffey and Zu made back to back huge plays on D. Zu redeemed himself after the disastrous showing against the Lakers.

I didn't expect this pair of games against Houston to be easy. Glad we got this one.

We'll take a W. No matter how. We did what it takes to win and we did. Hope we broke their backs and have an easier time next game.
I agree that we need a PG badly but didn't address that situation.

Ty has to move the bench pieces around to maximize the lineups on defense. They can score but issues stopping the other team could lead to larger issues. Two straight games but hopefully it’s just some rust

Three wins in a row, over 500, and without our top three. Love it. Zu was a complete beast. Fun game to watch.
The Clipper fan understands the Book of Exodus better than anyone... what it's like to struggle 40 years in the wilderness... and Genesis.. why Cain went after Abel... So fLakers, look out... we're coming.
